7) Heaven

Mr. Game and Watch couldn't remember the frenzy that occurred when the Halberd was under fire. All the two-dimensional man could really remember was the mass panic for evacuation off of the sinking ship. Looking around now though, he now knew two things. One, he was alive and well. Two, he was in some cloudy place in the sky, with pristine marble structures built atop the clouds and light radiating…

He paused. Now that he thinks about it, he might not have made it.

"But you did make it," A heavenly voice of a woman echoed out, responding to the narration. A ray of light shot through the clouds, basking over the two-dimensional man.

"Don't be surprised, I was known for being pretty self-aware in my own game." The voice continued to respond, acting as if talking to the narration is a normal thing.

Hey look, I started the original Attack of Giygas on November 14th, 2010, I didn't know anything about Kid Icarus Uprising!

"It was shown off at E3 that year." The voice huffed, the situation escalating toward silliness.

We didn't know how self-aware the game would be, come on, and quit giving me a hard time.

Meanwhile, Mr. Game and Watch had opted to ignore the aimless arguments and sat down, staring at the pretty clouds and basking in the heavenly light the voice was bestowing on him. So, ahem?

"Oh, right." The source of the voice decided that it was best to set this stuff aside for now. Besides, we have to work under the assumption that this was written in 2010… cough, even though we didn't know much about the source of her personality in that time, cough. Deciding not to escalate the conversation (for now), she revealed herself – a flash of light and a huge robed figure appeared, wielding a staff. She floated down from the clouds, approaching Mr. Game and Watch cautiously. "Greetings, I am Lady Palutena."

"…" Mr. Game and Watch didn't seem to be paying attention to what she was saying, instead looking at those hologram like wings at her sides.

She sighed and dissipated her wings, allowing herself to land on the ground (or clouds) in front of him. "I understand that you might be in shellshock, after what happened. As a goddess, I can feel when these great disasters happen…"

Mr. Game and Watch jumped to his feet, looking up at the goddess – the severity of the situation was rushing at him. "Oh yes, Giygas sure interrupted our last day of Smash!" Well, maybe not.

"Well, yes…" An off-put Palutena agreed. He seems like somebody who's difficult to get along with. "But Giygas is part of a bigger problem, Mr. Game and Watch."

He gasped. "How did you know my name?" He pointed an accusatory finger. "You want my identity, don't you? That's truly the most heinous of crimes!"

Palutena didn't feel at all threatened. If anything, she just felt concerned. "Oh, I saw it in the narration." And speaking of the narration, she leaned toward it (how?) and whispered, "Is there something wrong with him?"

He has a strange grasp on morals.

"How so?"

He only joined the Smashers because he was offered a parasol, for starters.

"Ahhh…" She turned her attention back to Mr. Game and Watch, trying to give him a warm, welcoming smile. "Mr. Game and Watch… I fear that there will be a great battle for good and evil one day, so, what I'm asking you is, what side will you be on?"

"Mine." He said bluntly, gesturing at himself.

"…What if I gave you…" Palutena brought her wings back, quickly drawing the flat man's attention. "…wings?"

"Wings? I can be a better octopus with those wings!"

"…You're only getting these wings if you remain on the side of good." Of course, it was a flat-out lie, because she honestly had no idea how she has her cool wings. But then again, he honestly seems like somebody who would be fooled by cardboard cut-outs of wings, and that's a lie she could easily pull off.

Mr. Game and Watch jumped up and down, emitting a beeping noise.

"…What does that mean?" The goddess whispered.

Just take it as a good thing. I'll write it as a good thing.

"Seems fair."


I've been thinking about doing commissions. Not for like money or anything, but for Steam gifts. See, Undertale introduced me to the horrors of Steam and I just want to buy everything. Does it sound like a neato thing? Message me, maybe.
